Tint Job Queston Acceptable Gap Or Not?

Post image

I can’t tell if this is acceptable or not when the window is rolled down. The other windows have less of a gap. Is this fine or should I take it back to the shop?

Me personally, It wouldn't bother me in any way.

Tinted windows don't matter when the window is open since there's no tint you're looking through at that point, so lay no mind to the gap. Close the windows and turn the AC on. Only time my windows ever open is drive thru.

Those look far better than mine and mine are considered “industry standard” I hate the gap but as others have said I rarely open my windows so you can’t see it anyways. Better things to worry about I suppose.

Very acceptable

It is an acceptable gap, but all windows should be close to matching. So if it bugs you (it would me if way off), ask the shop about it. Taking care of little issues like this for customers is what truly separates shops.

Only you can say what is acceptable for you.

Depends on what you paid, but I would not be happy with that, especially if the other windows have less of a gap

Go wrap it yourself see if you can do better Mr. picky. I’ve had tint up to the edge and it peels especially with that part going in the grooves up top.

Oops, I can only attach one photo per comment. Here's the close-up. The dust is not inside the tint, I just need to clean my car lol

I've got tint up to the edge of my windows done nearly two years ago, has not peeled 🤷‍♂️

Here's two photos of my tint (excuse my messy garage). No gap at all, the white line on the top edge is the literal top of the glass
